Love And Other Drugs

Flirting With Danger

"Dolls! Dolls! Dolls!" The crowd below her screamed and Luxe felt her heart lift slightly as she looked below her feet.


Currently she was standing up in the wings over the stage, her heart beating a mile a minute. A tech was hooking her in to her harness and Luxe couldn't help but replay Alex's words in her mind. He was very angry with her-enough to kill her? Luxe watched as the hooks were tightened and the tech tested her, pulling on one of the wires to make sure nothing was going to snap.

She went over in her head what she needed to say, the set list and her duet with Chris until suddenly the lights began to dim. Luxe overheard the techs talking to one another, giving the go ahead and soon enough Luxe was being lifted in to the air and then moved forward slightly.

The lights were out, but Luxe could tell her feet had made contact with the floor as soon enough a bright spot light was glaring in her eyes. She looked around, a twisted smirk on her face as she observed the crowd. The clowns were out in force, bumping in to people as they walked around and the terrified shrieks coming from the girls in the crowd made them laugh in a loud and twisted sort of manner.

A hush fell over the crowd as they saw Luxe standing there, the techs dressed all in black were now unhooking her from the harness so that she could move around. Her large skirt was hanging over the side of the stage like a curtain-it was time for the greatest show on earth.


"Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! Welcome to the greatest show on earth! Watch as two bands come together for a terrifying night. This is our Creepshow!" She said in to the mic, holding her arms out and then the light shut off.


Guitars sounded out as the girls all got on stage and Luxe only smiled as she watched Char and Pixie pass her, Lulu taking her left as Mads got behind the drums. The crowd was hushed, mesmerized and then they began to scream as the lights flashed back on, a dim red color washing over the band. Luxe smirked, banging her head up and down before opening her mouth to sing one of their new songs.


I see your soul decaying
Your light is slowly fading out
Your eyes are filled with fire
Your nails show dirt from digging down

There's nothing left in you
I know, I know it feels like dying
Like you're fighting just to breathe

We are the death of the party
We're here to save you
Blow out the candles
Come with the vandels
Baby, make 'em scream



The girls ran around the stage the best that they could, but it was difficult in their heels and dresses. The aerialists were floating down to the stage on their fabric, twisting and turning to the music as the crowd went crazy for it. The clowns were still walking around, dancing and singing along with the people in the crowd. Luxe was surprised that so many people knew these newer songs, but there again the album was coming out in two days and they had released some teaser videos for the coming tour.

Soon enough it was time for Chris to come out to do their duet and Luxe smiled as she saw him waiting in the wings.


"Alright creeps! This next song is one that I get to share with one of the greatest guys in the world-give it up for Chris Motionless!" Luxe yelled out in to the mic, the crowd screaming and shouting as Chris walked out on stage. He was dressed in a similar fashion to her-his black hair covered in a large top hat and his black jacket had a set of tails on the end.

There's something about you,
I can not explain
I just want to know you,
I just want to know your name
It's not what you said,
Not the way you said it
I'm under your spell and I don't regret it


Luxe sang, holding out her hand towards Chris and he only smirked as he walked towards her. He took her hand, spinning her around and then dipping her as his lips hovered over her neck. Luxe felt the chills run down her spine as she looked into his eyes and then she was up once again and he was behind her, singing low in her ear.

Don't you try to hide with those angel eyes
-If you let me inside, I wont hold back this time
Such a deep disguise, the devil's right inside
-More than paralyzed, oh its the chase you like


The pair sang together, but as they performed Luxe couldn't help but feel like there was some sort of connection. She knew people were taking pictures and she knew Andy would soon see those pictures all over social media and Luxe feared what his reaction would be. Chris was screaming, holding her hands behind her back with one hand and then as the song ended his lips caressed her neck and she could feel his cold piercings against her skin.

More chills and the crowd was screaming so loudly that the rafters seemed to be shaking. The lights went out and while Luxe was expecting Chris to leave the stage, he seemed to be looming over her, his lips still against her skin.


"We're having a party on the bus after the show. I want you to be there..." He said in her ear lowly and again a chill ran down her spine.


Luxe kept on performing, going through their set list to an excited crowd, but Chris' words still rang in her ears. She knew that he liked her-he flirted with her the entire time they were doing soundcheck earlier in the day and then at the Meet and Greet. She flirted back of course, but it was in a playful way, she wasn't trying to lead him on or anything. She had Andy and as Luxe ran off the stage after their encore, she couldn't help but smile.

Andy-he was probably getting off the stage as well and Luxe knew she couldn't wait to call him.

The girls all stood on the side of the stage while MIW went on, Luxe changing quickly into a shorter version of her dress so that she could be on stage when the guys performed A-M-E-R-I-C-A. She went out there when the music started, prancing around on stage and teasing the audience like she was supposed to, but Luxe couldn't help but feel Chris' eyes on her. He had invited her to their bus-all of the girls were invited-but as she left the stage and saw that the girls were starting the party early with booze and some blow, Luxe silently walked away.

She couldn't handle this right now-she couldn't go through this right now. Luxe kept walking, even though she could hear Pixie calling after her and Mads mocking her, but she just had to keep walking. Soon enough she was in the dressing room, removing her own makeup and trying to get the tangles out of her hair.

Chantal was still in the room, having come in after the girls show to pack up her own things and the makeup artist was able to help Luxe out of her outfit. Her arms and legs felt like a great weight had been lifted off of them as the dress, corset and under dress were removed and then Luxe took a very quick shower.

Fans screamed her name as Luxe walked out of the venue-MIW had just got off the stage and people were now surrounding the fence that kept their buses separated from the street. Luxe smiled as she walked over, her black yoga pants comfier than her dress and her BVB hoodie nice and warm-this was her after show outfit.

Luxe greeted the fans, took some pictures and signed some shirts before finally disappearing on to her bus. It was empty and still early in the tour so she could see the gleaming wooden floors as she walked back towards her bunk. It was strange being on a tour without Andy and as Luxe crawled in to her bunk and pulled the curtain closed, she tried not to cry.

She felt lost without Andy and slowly she pulled her phone out of her pocket and flipped through her photo album. She and Andy on their first tour together-one of the first photos of them from that tour and she could see how much they hated one another. He was holding her at arms length, his blue eyes holding a look of contempt as they posed for the camera. Flipping forward to the last photo of them together and Luxe smiled, the tears slowly running down her cheeks.

Andy was holding her tightly against his body, not looking at the camera as he was looking down at her instead. Luxe was looking at the camera, her grey eyes filled with happiness-true happiness.

Closing out of her album, Luxe smiled as she wiped at her tears and then pulled up Andy's number. The phone rang a few times until finally someone picked up.


"Hello?" It was Andy's voice and he sounded muddled and Luxe could hardly hear him.

"Hey babe!" She said in to the phone happily. There was a silence, some shuffling and then finally the background noise seemed to disappear.

"Baby doll-I didn't think you would call me this early. We just got off the stage..." Andy said, happiness lacing his words and Luxe let go of a fear she didn't even know she'd been holding on to.

"Oh-how was the show?" Luxe asked as she turned over and laid on her side. She had brought a pillow from home-Andy's- and the smell of him seemed to comfort her.

"It was amazing. How're you doing baby doll-you seem sad." Andy observed and Luxe tried to keep her tears at bay. She was sad-devastated-and she didn't know if she was going to be able to do this.

"I just miss you Andy...a lot." She said and it was true, but there were other things going on. Alex threatening her was frightening, Chris' attraction to her was weird and yet tempting and then there was the party that was going on as she laid in her bunk.

It was all too much for her right now and she needed Andy to help keep her from making some really big mistakes.

"Aww I miss you too doll. How was your show? Did the fans like the new songs?" He seemed genuinely interested in talking to her, which felt like a relief. Luxe had been worried that Andy wouldn't have time to talk to her-that he would be too busy with his own touring to be bothered.

"I think it went over well. Some of the more poppy songs they didn't seem to in to, but the album hasn't come out yet..." Luxe said, her worry over the new album resurfacing. The two albums would be out in a matter of days and the competition was fierce between the two bands. Fierce but playful.

"Good...so you wanna send me some sexy pictures?" Andy teased and Luxe only giggled as she shut her eyes and imagined that the two of them were there together.


They talked for most of the night until finally Luxe began to drift to sleep and they said their goodbyes. Maybe this wouldn't be so hard afterall...

Notes

Seems like maybe Luxe is falling for someone...and it's not Andy. Maybe they should break up...see other people...

So I can honestly say I didn't discover this story until recently. When I first started reading it I knew it would be one of my favorites from this site. I saw the sad ending coming but dear god I was still not prepared in any way. You wrote everything so genuinely and in a way that showed an amazing range of real and raw emotions. I may or may not have been crying profusely through the last chapters. This was a beautiful, bittersweet, and amazing story and I look forward to anything else you may ever decide to write. Thank you

I'm pretty sure I've done nothing but cry while reading these last few chapters. You do a wonderful job getting the reader emotionally involved in this story, and I'm really glad that I was able to read this wonderfully written piece. Thank you for all of the time and hard work that went into this story. It is definitely one of the best that I have read in a really long time.
